Ten grand to spend. Live in Cavan. Should I buy in Fermanagh

    Like the title says I live in Cavan and looking to buy a car. Have a budget of ten grand. Have looked around various garages in Cavan but have not found THE car. Thinking of going to Fermanagh and going the VRT route. Normally drive around 20000KM a year. Looking for something Diesel and 2010 onwards (this car needs to last me a good few years)

    I like the look of the Opel Insignia, Skoda Octavia, Ford Focus but am open to any car really. Prob a stupid deal breaker but I want a cd in the car that plays MP3'S and possibly also a USB port. Might sound silly but I like listening to music while driving and my old car (04 Nissan Almera) had that integrated system where if I had wanted to change the mysic system the controls on the steering wheel would have stopped working

    Id really appreciate any advice/tips

    You'd find a good selection of stuff in Dublin too, but to be fair, you're so near NI that you'd really have to give it a shot.

    First step is figuring out what model to get. Get out there and drive a much stuff as you can.

    Most 2010+ cars play mp3 files off a disc, and most can be retrofitted with usb/Bluetooth if its not already in there.

    All 3 cars you list are bigger than your Almera.
